4 Claims. (Cl. 17-1) This invention relates to the dressing of animal carcasses.
One of the objects of the invention is to provide a method for removing the pizzle cord in calves.
Other objects of the invention will be apparent from the description and claims which follow.
The customary method of dressing calves involves carrying the incision in the belly completely through the crotch to the bung opening. It is desirable in dressing hide-on calves to leave the crotch closed and the crotch skin intact. This renders diiilcult the removal of the pizzle cord in male animals. In dressing calves with the crotch closed, the procedure is to first stick the animal and permit it to bleed. The ri hind leg is then skinned out up to the hock and hung up on a trolly hook. The carcass passes down the rail and the other hind leg is skinned out and hung on a. trolly hooir. The head is then skinned out and out oh and the carcass washed. At the next station the bung is dropped.
In carrying out the'method of the present invention, an incision is made from the navel to the scrotum, which incision in the ordinary 02.11 exposes the end and about sixteen inches of the pizzle cord, which normally has a complete length of from twenty to twenty-five inches, terminating at its base at the bladder.
The method of the present invention may be readily understood by reference to the drawing.
Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating one form of a, tool which may be employed in themethod of the present invention.
Figure 2 is a side view of the tool shown in Figure Figure 3 is another side view. Figure 4 is a detail in cross section of the cutting edge of the tool.
, Figure 5 is a perspective view showing the incision in a calf carcass'from which the pizzle cor is about to be removed. y
Figure 6 is a. perspective view, partly in sectioiii, showing the manner of removal of the pizzle cor It will be seen by reierence to Figure 1 that the tool comprises a handle I, to which the shank 2 provided with collar portion 3 is aiilxed as by means of screw 4. The shank Us a hollow metalcylinder having two relatively large openings Ii defined by sides 6. The open end I is provided with circular cutting edge 8.
Figure 5 illustrates a calf carcass which has been prepared for removal of the pizzle cord.
It'will be noted that incision ti exposes the underlying tissue iro'm navel It to scrotum H. The manner of removing the pizzle cord may be understood byreference to Figure 6 in which the left hand I! of-an operator is shown grasping .pizzle 13. The .end it of pizzle I3 is first threaded through opening i anddrawn through one of the side openings 5. It is then seized as shown in Figure 6. The right hand E5 of the operator grasps the handle i and forces the cutting edge 8 through the tissue of the carcass back to the bung opening l6. In manipulating the tool, it isrotated back and forth through an are as it is being pushed under the skinthrough the tissue until the cutting edge of the tool emerges in the bung hole opening. The combined pushing and rotating action causes the sharp edge of the tool to cut the fell around the pizzle, resulting in complete removal of the pizzle from the carcass by coring it out.
I claim:
1. The method of removing pizzle cords from calves which comprises exposing the end portion of the pizzlebetween the navel and the scrotum and removing the'pizzle cord in its entirety by coring out the base portion of the pizzle between the scrotum and the bladder.
2. In dressing calves, the steps involving the removal of the pizzle cord which comprise exposing the end portion of the male between the navel and the scrotum and coring out the base portion of the pizzle.
3. In dressing calves with a closed crotch, the steps comprising forming a bung opening by dropping the bung, exposing the end of the pizzle cord between the navel and the scrotum, cutting the fell around the base portionot the pimle from the scrotum to the bung opening. and removing the pizzle in its entirety.
4. In dressing animal carcasses, the steps involving the removal of the pimle which comprise coring out the base portion of the picnic.
